Soccer

A few weeks ago Jayce started soccer.  For some reason it was kind of a big deal to us.I've written before a bit about how Jayce had a rough start at the beginning of the school year.   He also had a kind of rough experience at a basketball camp that we took him to.  Chris' school was holding a basketball camp one night a week for various ages starting at age 6.  Chris had talked to one of the coaches and they had thought that...
